Vitality Life & Vitality Points – Life Insurance with Benefits
Vitality Life Insurance is exciting! Hopefully, I’ve managed to keep you from turning away to the next post about music or food. I’ll own up to being one of those people who hate insurance policies. If my washing machine breaks, I buy a new one. If the Telly packs in we find a better one.…

Fifty Shades Freed Movie Review
I accidentally stumbled into the cinema and landed in the Fifty Shades Freed screening… honest! OK, it was slightly different to that. Catherine had booked tickets to see Black Panther and something didn’t log in correctly and we turned up at the cinema with no tickets booked. So Instead of heading home with now show,…

The Jungle Book
Nearly 50 years ago, Walt Disney released the original animated version of the Jungle Book. Inspired by the book of the same name by Rudyard Kipling. The was also the last animated film that Walt Disney himself produced. Obviously I can’t remember the original release, but I can remember my Mum taking me to see a…

Eddie the Eagle
The last time my Mum had been to the cinema was nearly 20 years ago. My Dad had taken her to see Titanic on the big screen. It was a big event that my Dad was clearly looking forward to as he was the kind of person who’d wait “until it was on the tv…

Is the Goosebumps movie too scary for kids?
After seeing the Goosebumps movie advertised in a trailer last year, I thought that looks like a good movie to take Imogen to. She’s 8 years old now and some of the family movies we take both our kids too seem too baby-ish. I also instantly thought, is the Goosebumps movie too scary for kids?…
